Ash Ketchum
gender: male (trans)
age: 10 (fa), 17 (ak), 40 (ng)
birth year: 784
height: 5'7"
astrology: aries (⊙), sagittarius (☽), aries (asc)
sexuality: bi

hometown: pallet, kanto
current residence: lumiose, kalos
relatives: delia ketchum (mom), walker (father), goh (half-brother), paul lavender (husband), helia lavender-ketchum (daughter), rory hahn (niece), pamela hahn (niece), fallon renwick (niece), caoimhe renwick (niece), brooklyn evans (neice)
occupation: trainer (fa), champion (ak/ng)
pokemon (on-hand): pikachu
others: adhd
when ash won the kalos league against alain he was asked by diantha to be co-champion with her for a time while she was extremely busy with acting work. it was expected to be a short-term thing, but the people of kalos loved ash so much and he did such a good job of it that after briefly traveling kanto again with paul, he officially took on the kalos elite four and diantha herself, usurping her as the sole kalos champion.he still travels from time to time, but mostly he wanders around the kalos region when he feels restless and he has battles with anyone who asks (off-record, of course).he and paul were married as soon as they were able and the kalos region is accepting and enthusiastic about their relationship. paul is a private man, so ash gets most of the spotlight - that doesn't stop people from asking him to comment on his husband a lot of the time.

occupation: trainer (fa), stay-at-home dad (ng)
pokemon (on-hand): torterra
paul stopped battling officially when he moved to kalos, but he had stopped for the most part altogether after the sinnoh league concluded. even though he and ash were dating by the sinnoh arc's finale, he didn't follow ash to unova and instead took time to reflect on himself back in sinnoh. during this time he was outed to the sinnoh public at large, including his family - and subsequently disowned. it was extremely hard on him, and he ended up turning to dawn as a source of friendship and comfort despite hardly getting along with her at all previously. she was friends with ash and was around and willing, so he took the offer.he lived with her in her twinleaf home for some time, other times traveling alone, trying to avoid the public's scrutiny as much as he could - until ash won the kalos league and finally asked him to move there with him.nowadays, paul will battle someone every now and again, but for the most part, deciding to stop was probably the best choice for him. he hadn't chosen to become a trainer of his own accord - instead being pushed into it by his father and the pressure from reggie stepping down from battling himself. becoming a champion was all that mattered to him, and because of that it had pushed him to behave in ways that were harmful to himself and others. his friends can all see that he's much happier with that burden lifted.

pokemon (on-hand): dedenne, tyrantrum, galvantula
bonnie started working as a mechanic in her dad's workshop after her journey through kalos with her brother - figuring it would be better to at least learn the family profession while she was waiting to go on a journey of her own. she ended up being quite talented, but of course was off through kalos the instant she was old enough. she traveled alongside her closest friends, lyn (who would later become her wife), heidi, jay, kye, and randall.she attempted to join lyn when she decided to pursue performances, but gave up when she found that it just wasn't for her. she continued to support lyn all the way, and they each found success doing what they loved.when bonnie settled down, she found that she was able to not only continue her training working at her brother's gym, but could also help him with his inventions - she often saw flaws in them that he was blind to. she spends most of her time being an engineer nowadays, but is also busy raising a toddler.

lyn tried her best to be a good trainer, but when she started entering showcases, her time was split between both and she ended up not being very skilled in either. for a while she was distraught and scared that she would never find success in anything she did - but bonnie saw potential in her that she didn't see in herself. she encouraged her to continue with her showcases and they trained alongside each other. eventually, lyn did find her rhythm and finally won her first princess key! she continues to this day entering showcases and showing off her pokemon's features.lyn finds beauty in any pokemon - she's capable of bringing it out no matter what assets it has. she finds that out of her entire team, eelektross is the prettiest (but don't tell the rest of them that!) she's kind and empathetic, and sensitive to a fault.

pokemon (on-hand):
max went on his first journey, entered the league, and immediately was offered a position as professor birch's assistant. max was hesitant at first - his training had gone well and he'd had fun in his first league, but he couldn't deny that this was the opportunity of a lifetime. he accepted, and spent a lot of his time conducting research for the regional professor - traveling across hoenn and learning everything he could. eventually it was time to move onto bigger projects, though.when max decided study astronomy formally, he didn't expect to meet his old friend tory! of course they would both have a similar passion for outer space and the mysteries it contains. they hit it off immediately and spent all their nights studying together (or playing video games together, amongst other things). they became roommates and then more.now they're both the leading professors in the field of extraterrestrial pokemon.

tory never did become a full-fledged trainer - never entered a league or earned many badges. he dabbled in it a bit, but eventually found that it wasn't for him. he was simply grateful for the fact that ash and his friends had brought him out of his shell and broken him out of his fear for pokemon.he used this newfound love for pokemon to fuel his studies - bringing him to finally learn all he could about the stars and what's beyond - just like where his first pokemon friend had come from. at school he re-met his future husband, max, and together they each became respected professors together.

serafina was a warm and loving mother, liked by most people and known for being quite beautiful. she had problems standing up to brandon (particularly about how to raise their children), though, and most of the time she was subservient to him. she was often home alone with the boys while brandon worked at the frontier, but he had a lot of influence on their upbringing nonetheless. she'd still say she loved brandon, but paul would later wonder why that was ever the case.one day on her way to the store, when reggie was out on his journey and paul was 7 years old, she was struck by a car and didn't return.

mariah disappeared from barry's life when he was around 5 years old. she ran away without saying anything to her husband or son and hasn't been seen by either since. she might still be out there, but no one is really looking.when she was still in the picture, she was cold and quiet - backing down from all confrontations and never standing up to her giant of a husband. barry doesn't know if she ever actually cared about him but as far as he's concerned, it doesn't really matter since she obviously didn't care enough to take him with her.

occupation: breeder (apprentice)
pokemon (on-hand): sunkern
helia is a shy girl - an extreme introvert who doesn't talk to many people outside of her dads (and let's be honest, mostly paul). she can come off as rude due to her expressions, but really, she just wants to be left to her own devises - thinking and existing in her own little bubble. when she was a baby, she was an absolute nightmare to babysit for - even for ash sometimes - as the only person she felt at ease with was paul. she later bonded with a few others, namely bonnie and brock, but not a whole lot of people understand her personality and needs well enough to get there.it's due to this that becoming a trainer was never on the table for her. due to the presence of multiple breeders in her life (brock, reggie, etc), she was offered an alternative to training which allowed her to bond with pokemon without any major socialization. she's just getting started since she's only 10 years old, but she's already hatched her first pokemon egg and plans on getting better and better at taking care of and bonding with pokemon.she prefers to be outdoors at all possible times, often getting lost in the woods and only being found later, playing with the forest pokemon. if her shoes can be off, they will be off.

occupation: performer
pokemon (on-hand): sylveon, meowstic♂, pumpkaboo
harper was born to perform. as a child, he would dance and sing and put on elaborate costumes (often "borrowing" from his moms). he marveled at serena and aria's routines when they'd return to the stage, and he'd obsess over contest and showcase recordings he would watch on pokevision. due to the fact that he looked up to his moms so much, he took after them in many ways - wearing frilly dresses and trying on their makeup. they honestly thought he might be trans (which they'd accept wholeheartedly!) but it turns out he just wanted to be on stage.however, showcases were traditionally only for girls and women. he'd cry and beg to be let in (with serena gently letting him know that he wasn't even old enough if he could) but the rules are rules... right? but serena and aria knew that their son was meant for this, and why are these rules in place, anyway? just because it was a more feminine version of contests did not mean that boys couldn't compete. plenty of male coordinators were feminine already.so by the time that harper was old enough, his moms had done enough begging and pleading of their own that finally, mercifully, the gender requirement was abolished. harper's first showcase was also the first showcase in which a boy was ever allowed to perform. he... lost.that didn't stop him though! at 18, he still hasn't become kalos king, but eventually he'll take the title!

link to full (incomplete) log of adele's journey here
the log goes past the current date (824)
it contains what are essentially spoilers, but it is a wip and shouldn't be taken as fact
age 10 (kanto)
adele journey notes
----kanto----
(yr. 821, age 10-11)
•day one with squirtle something bad happened akin to the spearow attacks from ash's first day. i dont think squirtle saves her but maybe it does??
•at first reports back to parents often and in good spirits but as she messes up more and more she turns down their calls and stops messaging them at all. maybe gary sends someone to find her?
•lots of near-death experiences - she knows how to cook but maybe cant find ingredients easily. nearly falls off cliffs a lot. lots of bruises and scratches. lots of miserable nights in the woods.
•refuses to travel with anyone who offers - makes almost no friends in kanto but grows extremely close to her pokemon
•due to her turbulent journey, she doesn't win enough badges to enter the league when it rolls around. she believes she's worked hard enough, but they deny her entry anyway. in her rage, she corners a trainer who did get all 8 badges who looks enough like her for her to beat up and steal this trainers id card. she enters as this trainer instead of herself and isn't caught until she's already battled her way up to the final two trainers. at that point she's finally discovered and swiftly disqualified - making the trainer she was about to battle win by default. since it's her first journey and she's incredibly young, they only ban her from returning to enter the kanto league again for 1 year - she isn't banned in other regions like she would have been if she were deemed more mature, so she decides to travel to the next region over to start again.
•at this point makes a pact with squirtle (now evolved into wartortle) that it won't evolve into blastoise until they win a league together
----johto----
(yr. 822, age 11-12)
•she very quickly meets scarlet and the two hit it off immediately. theyre both pretty abrasive and strong, so when they battle they bond easily. scarlet joins her as her first travel partner
•it's maybe only 1 or 2 badges into the journey that scarlet hears word of what adele did in the kanto league - adele is a bit well-known simply for being professor (gary) oak's daughter, so her reputation precedes her and someone tips scarlet off. she's horrified since she has a strong sense of justice and immediately demands to hear adele's side of the story. but when she explains herself, scarlet still doesn't think she was justified and breaks off their friendship, leaving adele to travel alone once again. adele is angry and feels betrayed (like scarlet does) so she lashes out by insulting scarlet and she forms a one-sided rivalry where adele's only goal is to make scarlet feel as miserable as possible
•adele doesn't want to be left alone again, so the very first "trainer' she sees at a nearby gym, she sweeps away to travel with her. as it turns out, griffin isn't actually a trainer which angers adele. she takes him out to the forest, lends him a pokeball, and helps him catch his first pokemon - a hoppip. he's a bit disappointed that his first catch is something so weak but she assures him it's fine (even if she does think its a bit funny)
•on this journey griffin grows incredibly close to adele since to him she's nothing but helpful to him as a new trainer. she seems to be very cool and knowledgeable to him and she always happens to give him advice when he needs it the most (which is usually just a coincidence on her part). they are actually compatible as travel companions, though, and adele grows to like him as a friend as well.
•eventually griffin also learns about adele's past (not sure how?) but they've grown close enough at this point that he can't imagine traveling without her or condemning her. if scarlet is involved, she would call him out and tell him he's siding with a criminal, but griffin only has adele's side of the story and believes what she did was righteous.
•adele once again loses the league, but so do griffin and scarlet. not sure who if any of them battle each other yet. griffin makes the tough decision to travel through kanto like adele did (maybe he's made a friend already to travel with him? idk) which leaves adele to move on to hoenn alone
----hoenn----
(yr. 823, age 12-13)
•i dont have much at all for hoenn yet
•she travels with sage (a coordinator) who has a rivalry with eve in this region
•scarlet has already traveled through hoenn, so if she's in this plot it isn't for very long (more like for visits to family or something)
•WAIT I LIED, im stupid, scarlet is from sinnoh not hoenn. just because she has a combusken does not mean she is from hoenn @ myself.
•that being said, i previously had scarlet traveling galar while adele was in sinnoh but now it makes more sense for her to not have been involved in the hoenn arc instead. i accidentally made scarlet pivotal to the sinnoh plot without remembering what i had put down previously but that's alright
•this journey is much more laid-back and slice-of life as far as i know, but again, i have almost nothing planned for this one
----sinnoh----

•reunites with griffin (as well as one or two other travel companions i haven't sorted out yet). scarlet returns as a rival
•i don't have much for the middle section of this journey tbh
•probably a "movie" plot involving alse, since i dont want her to take up a lot of the actual meat of the plot but i do want adele to be involved with her story somehow
---past this point are "spoilers"---
•the champion, caspian, is incredibly charming and powerful - uses a zeraora. secretly he's the villain of this section, and he lures adele into believing in his cause for a while by impressing her with his power and charisma.
•is defeated by scarlet in the league, griffin makes it further than her but maybe gets defeated by scarlet as well. not sure if i want scarlet to win the league or not. if she does, it'd be sick if during the final battle, combusken starts to evolve and rather than save the evolution for after they win, like they had previously agreed to do like adele and wartortle, she instead allows it and wins the battle after. adele would be angry, like a pact had been broken between them even though they hadn't been friends for a long time now and scarlet owed her nothing
•caspian is discovered to be hoarding legendary and mythical pokemon by capturing them against their will in a ball not meant to release them. probably involving some kind of other nefarious deeds as a pokemon villain does. when he's found out, he panics and launches an attack on the league building as well as the town surrounding it, injuring countless people and pokemon.
•adele risks her life as well as the lives of her pokemon by going after caspian even though she was repeatedly told not to by those around her and to just wait until more people could go after him at once. reinforcements hadn't come in yet. she refused to wait and instead charged him, resulting in the extreme injury of her pokemon, most of all her wartortle. when she was defeated, scarlet instead showed up with the reinforcements and defeated caspian herself.
•wartortle, extremely disappointed in its trainers decisions, decides to leave adele. maybe it even breaks its own pokeball? the rest of adele's pokemon follow suit - maybe most of them just return to the lab back at home but none of them want to continue to train with her after the stunt she pulled.
•griffin doesn't follow her to unova, siting the fact that she seemed dangerous and he didn't want to be around her when she acted like that
----unova----
(yr. 825, age 14-15)
•without wartortle or any of her other pokemon, adele is forced to start over with a brand new starter. she chooses tepig.
•she appears a lot more hardened and intimidating than she did before. she now sports a face scar and wears her hair down (mostly from laziness due to her depression but shhh) - link to image
•once again, like her first journey, starts turning down all offers to travel with her. she no longer wants to make friends anymore. an old friend (not companion) even asks to travel with her, but she still turns the offer down
----kalos----
(yr. 826, age 15-16)
•im distinctly picturing a scene where adele is defeated (pretty far in the league) again and while shes standing there, not moving or saying anything from the total shock, she hears griffin (in the stands) screaming her name. she turns to him and he cheers for her, telling her she did a fantastic job. she turns back to look across the field again, and she drops to her knees to cry hard, clutching her head - but she cant help but feel a bit warm from griffin encouraging her like that. its still an extremely bitter defeat since in this journey, she might be healing and accepting friendship a lot more easily than she ever did before (espeically after what happened in sinnoh) and she thought for sure that she was stronger than she's ever been
----galar?----
(???)
•lowkey i want adele to win the galar league tho

esperanza (espie) & amora pereira
gender: female
age: 16 (ng)

sexuality: (espie) straight,
(amora) bi
type: fairy
hometown: laverre, kalos
current residence: traveling (unova)
previous regions traveled: kalos, hoenn
relatives: nando pereira (nadda), valerie pereira (momma)
occupation: trainer, performer
pokemon (on-hand): (espie) leafeon, swadloon, dedenne (amora) vaporeon, cotonee, cherrim
espie and amora are opposites in many ways - espie being loud, outgoing and reckless while amora is the soft, introverted and cautious one - but they work scarily well as a team nonetheless. like their nadda, they couldn't choose between the strategy and fast pace of pokemon battling and the glitz and style of performing, so they made a compromise to do both equally.the two get into trouble... a bit too frequently. they'll plot to break into places for the fun of it and they're prone to play mischievous pranks on those they probably shouldn't be bothering. they've been thrown out of a fair number of gyms and showcase halls.they model clothing for their mom every once in a while but generally they can't sit still for long enough to make it a legitimate profession now or in the future.

occupation: evil organization leader
pokemon (on-hand): stoutland
dmitry first found out his parents used to be criminals when he was in his mid-teens (despite them doing everything in their power to hide it from him) and ever since then, he's had an insatiable need to continue that legacy of evil. no matter how hard others try to convince him that it's a fruitless endeavor, he persists.the issue is that he's absolutely no good at it. his "evil organization" consists of maybe around 15 at most friends of his and others who need a quick buck from the petty thievery he plans out. the damage he causes is almost entirely simple misdemeanors like causing scenes in public and knocking over vending machines. he has no ideas for the future of his organization and mostly just relies on the good morale of his little group to continue the dream.

relatives: augustine sycamore (papa/grandpa), N (stepfather), alain sycamore (dad)
occupation: trainer
pokemon (on-hand): (mega) ampharos, arcanine, mightyena, mismagius, mienshao, aegislash
étoile was the accidental child of alain and... well, she didn't know her other father for quite a while. alain insisted she didn't even have one - which she believed for a large portion of her childhood, until she realized that wasn't possible at all. she had to have been made somehow.only much later into her life did she finally learn who provided her with her blonde hair when she became strong enough to battle the elite four member, siebold. something clicked in his head and he asked who her dad was. when she explained that it was alain, he made a call and found out that he'd had a daughter he hadn't known about for well over a decade. they don't keep in touch like she thought she might when she learned of her other parent, but at least she now has closure to that part of her story.as for the rest of it, she was brought up knowing nothing but travel. alain didn't put his journey on hold for anything - not even having a baby - so she grew up in tents and forests all around the pokemon world. this has left her feeling restless if she settles down for even a moment, so obviously becoming a trainer worthy of wielding mega evolution was a must for her.she started her journey in johto as it just happened to be the region her and her dad were travelling when she became old enough to go out on her own. alain lent her a pokemon so she could catch one of her own - a mareep, reminding her of her childhood backpack with a mareep on the back.as she battled others, she quickly realized that her raw talent far surpassed her peers. she was already winning leagues at the age of 10, mastered mega evolution at age 12, and had multiple opportunities to become the champion of nearly every region by the age of 13. she declined every offer, but privately won against many of the regions' champions in non-official battles.if asked, she'd tell you she doesn't want the spotlight or responsibility that being a regional champion comes with. it would force her to settle down and not travel nearly as much as she'd like to, and as much as she enjoys the idea of others looking up to her, she doesn't want the constant exposure that fame brings someone.despite this attitude, she's become quite well-known amongst trainers and in her 14 years of battling, has transcended to a myth-like state. she's difficult to locate, and only the best trainers (usually others who have given up the champion title to pursue further high-level training) will ever get the chance to battle her.

scarelt used to travel with adele back during her johto journey, but when she learned about the horrible things adele had done, she could no longer stand to see her so-called friend any longer. she knew adele was brash, but this? scarlet couldnt travel with someone like that.ever since then, adele has relentlessly bullied scarlet any time they meet - to the point of tears on multiple occasions. scarlet's self-esteem is holding on strong, but often times it's hard to know if maybe adele is right - that she really isn't a good trainer and maybe she should just give up.but she wont give in that easily!

glossary
previous name: will only mention previous surnames - NOT deadnames for trans characters
gender: trans marker indicates they IDENTIFY as the gender, not that it is their biology - example: male (trans) is a character who identifies as male and is trans. nonbinary/genderfluid inherently imply trans. n/a means they don't use a label for their gender
age: fa - First Appearance (first time we see them in the anime); ak - After Kalos (one year after ash becomes kalos champion, yr. 801); ng - Next Generation (when helia is 10 years old, yr. 824)
birth year: self-explanatory
height: self-explanatory - in feet, based on last appearance (whatever their oldest age is)
astrology: ⊙ - sun sign, ☽ - moon sign, asc - ascendant sign. is not based on any actual astrological relevance as i do not know what the pokemon sky is like and will never know, but rather, based on the characters personality
sexuality: self-explanatory, "???" means questioning, n/a means they haven't thought about it yet
type: "type" when referring to humans is not referring to the exact same "type" that a pokemon would have. most humans are not duel type, for one, but most humans also cannot utilize this typing for any meaningful results. all it means for most people is that their talents might lean in a certain direction, but reasonably could be achieved by any person if dedicated enough. a "+" symbol denotes a person who has developed powers beyond what anyone would expect of a typical human being (pokemon receiving this symbol as default). a link to in-depth descriptions of each type can be found here.
hometown: where a character was born or grew up as a child
current residence: where a character is living during their last appearance (whatever their oldest age is)
previous regions traveled: listed in chronological order. if a region is listed that is also the character's current residence, assume it their second time traveling through it
relatives: only includes semi-immediate family members, will not include in-laws, distant cousins, great aunts etc etc.
occupation: what the character does with most of their time - does not inherently imply they make money doing it
pokemon (on-hand): what the character carries on their person regularly during their last appearance (whatever their oldest age is)

the reason that humans have "types" (separate but not dissimilar from those that pokemon have), can be attributed to a common ancestor shared by humans and pokemon in the "human-like" egg category. humans evolved alongside pokemon and while most lost their ability to utilize their typings (and all lost their abilities to use uniquely-named "moves"), they make up for that in their ability to form broader civilizations than most pokemon can, as well as to raise, train, and command pokemon in battle. some pokemon have been known to "train" other pokemon, but generally speaking, this is a trait most commonly found in humans.types that humans can be, listed in order of commonality, are: fighting, psychic, fairy, dark, & ghost.fighting types are usually passionate, strong-willed humans with a proclivity for physical strength. they are not incapable of intelligence - in fact, being the most common typing, many professors and scholars are fighting type. muscle might build quicker than those with other typings but on the other hand, they might be more prone to mood swings and anger. a "+" symbol usually denotes aura powers - either being able to sense aura or manipulate it - but it can also refer to physical strength beyond what could be expected of a typical human being.psychic types are often split into two different sub-categories: analytical and empathetic. those in the first group often have an easier time memorizing school notes or piecing together information - they're known for being intelligent but also can come across as cold or unfeeling. on the other hand, those in the second group tend to have high levels of empathy and creativity, often coming off to others as intuitive (or somewhat being able to tell the future). however, some people argue that both categories mix too often to be cleanly split and that generally the psychic type has a broader range of abilities than others. a "+" symbol can mean anything from telekinesis and telepathy to being able to read the thoughts of pokemon or predicting the future with unusual accuracy.fairy types are a rarer category and not much is known about them. in general they might be cunning and sly, able to somewhat manipulate those around them to do their bidding. they often have youthful appearances and might give off a "creepy", ethereal vibe. a "+" symbol might mean they can sense aura (not usually being able to fully utilize it like fighting types) or that they have anti-ageing powers which make them appear much, much younger than they actually are. further research is needed to determine if fairy types are capable of having any other unique powers.dark types are similarly rare, often getting confused for other types even after tests have been conducted. they're known to be sinister and irritable, but like any other type, sterotypes aren't always what determines a dark type's character. they are often misunderstood and feel like outcasts - prone to depression and "dark" thoughts. a "+" symbol has only ever been documented to mean a certain extra level of "luck" but this is debated as many researchers do not believe in the concept at all. otherwise, dark type powers have not been researched to a satisfactory extent.ghost is a unique typing, as it does not come about naturally and has only been found in humans who have undergone intense physical and emotional trauma (often in near-death situations). it's been theorized that to become ghost type means that you have been "chosen" by the ghost realm as an emissary, but this has not been proven. most people who become ghost type develop some form of "+" power, but these powers vary greatly. some of the powers reported to come from those with the ghost typing include being able to walk through walls, float short distances (or, allegedly, all the time), talk to pokemon, read other's minds, sense impending danger or turning invisible. none of these have been able to be fully researched or documented, and in fact, many other powers have been rumored but not proven. many of these powers could have come from other previous typings, and no one is sure if any of these powers are even "human".
